People often ask if I’m Jewish. I am not. But I like to say that I’m culturally Jewish. I love the food, the traditions, the music and the Manischewitz. One of my favorite holidays traditions includes signing up for the Cards Against Humanity holiday fun. Each year, you pay a small sum, $15, and they…
We had an amazing 2013 holiday season. It’s hard to believe that they have already come and gone. One of my favorite things was watching my son perform in his first school play. I was very impressed with how great the production turned out. He worked hard and practiced a lot. It was great that…
I’ve had four cats in my lifetime. Three of them could care less about the Christmas tree. They all loved the Christmas tree shirt. What’s up with that? The instant I take them out to decorate, they were on them. They would never sleep in their cat beds we bought, but those Christmas tree shirts…
I have lots of blog posts to write, I’ve been a little behind lately. There’s been a lot going on and blogging has gotten lost in the mix. And obviously I need time to focus on more important things in life, like Elf on A Shelf! Yes, it’s that time of year again, so I…
It’s one of our favorite family traditions, Light Up UCF! For us, it kicks off the holiday season. Yes, it’s a little early – but that’s fine by me! Light Up UCF features ice skating, rides, and holiday attractions at the University of Central Florida outside the newly renamed CFE Arena (formerly UCF Arena). The…
I have blogged a lot about my family’s love of bacon. We’ve hit two different bacon festivals in the Orlando area an have tried lots of trendy bacon-related products. Here’s the thing – we just love the bacon. We don’t need gimmicks or twists. We just want the bacon. And if you’re like me, perhaps…
Bacon and Sriracha – two flavors that are taking over the world. And now, new products that are making my head just hurt. The press release alone is priceless, so let’s just start there: J&D’s Foods is pleased to announce the launch of POWER BACON Deodorant and Sriracha Candy Canes! Yes, the world’s first Bacon-scented…
I view this post as a public service announcement to all parents. All that Halloween candy that you just don’t think anyone will eat, or should eat? Put it away and save it for Christmas!!! Not Christmas exactly, but it’s the perfect thing to help decorate your gingerbread house! Yes, I know, genius. I started…
I’m now all depressed having said goodbye to the holidays. Christmas is officially over. Yesterday, we had my work holiday party. We do it after the holidays, which is nice and gives us all a way of extending the fun! I even wore my fancy party shoes! I did do some dancing in those shoes…
Hope you all had a safe New Year! I’m hoping 2013 will be a year of new challenges and excitement! Our year started off with a bang, literally! The neighbors went crazy lighting off fireworks. My 9-year-old and his new ipad got some great pictures of the excitement. He’s now into photography, which is kind…
